| ⚡️🚨🇪🇺 ALERT - The European Commission is about to steal your search history in one of the largest forced data grabs   |
| in the history of the open internet, and almost nobody is talking about it.                                          |

| The scope is staggering:                                                                                             |

| Under the proposed measures for DMA Article 6(11), Google would be ordered to ship the daily search behaviour of     |
| hundreds of millions of Europeans to multiple third parties through a daily API feed. Any approved "online search    |
| engine," AI chatbots included, would get five years of access.                                                       |
|                                                                                                                      |
| The things people only ever type when they think no one is watching. All of it now scheduled to flow daily into an   |
| open-ended list of third parties scattered across the European Union.                                                |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Brussels promises "anonymisation." The reality is a thin technical veneer that has been broken in academic           |
| literature again and again for over a decade. Search behaviour is a fingerprint. Stripping a name does not change    |
| that.                                                                                                                |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Mass data leaks become inevitable. Every new beneficiary is a new attack surface, and every annual audit is a year   |
| of silent exposure between checks. The 2025 Discord vendor breach already showed how fast 70,000 government IDs can  |
| leak through a single weak link. Now imagine that link holding Europe's search history.                              |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Surveillance without consent becomes the default. Hundreds of millions of EU citizens never agreed to have their     |
| queries packaged and shipped to companies they have never heard of. The legal fiction of "anonymisation" cannot      |
| manufacture consent that was never given.                                                                            |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Behavioural search data is a goldmine for phishing, blackmail, social engineering, and corporate espionage.          |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Foreign intelligence services get a back door without effort. They do not need to breach Google. They only need to   |
| compromise the weakest name on the beneficiary list. One insolvent startup. One compromised contractor. One approved |
| entity quietly acquired by a hostile state.                                                                          |
|                                                                                                                      |
| In the name of "competition," the EU is about to manufacture a permanent, distributed, daily-refreshed copy of       |
| Europe's collective search history. A surveillance dataset Brussels itself would never approve if any other          |
| government tried to build it.                                                                                        |
|                                                                                                                      |
| The public consultation closes Friday, May 1, 2026 at 23:59 CEST. The final binding decision lands July 27, 2026.    |
|                                                                                                                      |
| After that, the door does not close again.                                                                           |
